Liz O'Donnell

Ceist:

112 Ms O'Donnell asked the Minister for Health the vacant places, if any, that were available in all cases of emergency care orders made in each of the years 1993 to 1995 in view of his reply to Parliamentary Question No. 43 of 13 March 1996. [6238/96]

In my reply to Parliamentary Question No. 43 of 13 March 1996 I gave the Deputy information on the number of children who were the subject of a place of safety order or emergency care orders between 1993 and 1995 and the number of residential and foster care places available for these children. The information includes vacant residential and foster care places which are available to children in emergency situations. There is no further information available to my Department on the availability of emergency care places.
